📄️ Introduction
This section is part of the Dual GPU-Passthrough, which means also is the most expensive and best setup.
📄️ How to Buy a CPU
To enable GPU passthrough, you need a CPU that supports virtualization. Without this capability, your system won’t be able to run GPU passthrough effectively. Here’s how to choose the right CPU.
📄️ How to Buy a Motherboard
The motherboard is crucial for GPU passthrough. Make sure it supports virtualization technology.
📄️ How to Buy a GPU
Choosing a GPU is straightforward, but there are a few considerations based on your needs.
📄️ Optional Devices
Choose the mouse, keyboard, and monitors that best suit your preferences. These devices enhance your overall experience, as mentioned earlier.

📄️ Edit Bootloader Configuration
If your arch is ready to go, it's time to dive into bootloader configuration. To fine-tune your bootloader settings, let’s customize them based on your CPU type:
📄️ Passthrough the GPU!
Let passthrough our second GPU now, run the following command in your terminal:
📄️ Installing require Packages
Alright, let's installing the essential packages. Each of these plays a key role in getting virtualization up and running smoothly.
📄️ Configuring Libvirt
Now that we've got the packages installed, you might notice that when you try to open virt-manager, it asks for the root password. To smooth things out, we'll need to configuring libvirt, qemu, and virt-manager for adjust permissions so everything runs more seamlessly.
